Recent Commentary

The End of an Era in Finance  
Dani Rodrik
Project Syndicate
03/17/10
What happened on February 19 was a revolution in economics. On that day, the International Monetary Fund reversed its long-held position on capital controls.

Toyota Is a Symptom of Japan's Decline  
Devin T. Stewart 03/10/10
Toyota's fall from grace caps a 20-year economic malaise that is infecting the popular culture, manifesting itself in a preference for staying home, avoiding risk.

Japan's Slow-Motion Crisis  
Kenneth Rogoff
Project Syndicate
03/02/10
Japan's ability to trudge on in the face of huge adversity is admirable, but the risks of crisis ahead are surely greater than bond markets seem to recognize.

Confronting Culture in Congo  
Saleem H. Ali 02/24/10
It is high time the international community confront the elephant in the room when talking about Congo and violence against women worldwide -- culture.

The Future of Capitalism and the Dangers of Returning to Business as Usual  
Jean-Marc Coicaud, Zhang Jin
United Nations University Office at the United Nations, New York (UNU-ONY)
02/22/10
When it comes to making sense of international finance and economics, the era of so-called scientific certainties is over. To address the structural challenges the world faces now, we need to explore the feasibility of global public policy.

The Evolution of Revolution  
Rita J. King
Dancing Ink Productions
02/20/10
Revolution is hard work, and lethal. Social media has a communicative role to play in the sophisticated design of systems that will undermine human suffering and solve the "day after" problems of deposing a dictatorship.

The New Golden Age  

strategy+business
02/17/10
The history of investment and technology suggests that economic recovery is closer than you think, with a new silicon-based global elite at the helm.

Haiti and the Rules of Generosity  
Peter Singer
Project Syndicate
02/16/10
Why do people give generously to earthquake victims, but not to prevent the much larger number of deaths brought about by extreme poverty, insufficient food, unsafe water, lack of sanitation, and the absence of even the most basic healthcare?

Euroland Crucified Upon Its Own Cross of Gold  
Thomas Palley 02/12/10
As a form of automatic stabilizer, the European Central Bank should establish annual country loan quotas set according to each country's economic size and output gap.

Obama's Grade on Trade: B  
Mark Engler 02/09/10
Beyond the uncertain fate of trade agreements left over from the Bush years, President Obama has yet to implement the promises for trade reform he made on the campaign trail.

Immigration Administration Control in Japan  
Hiroshi Kimizuka 02/03/10
Japanese immigration policy seeks to balance the needs of migrants and refugees with the harmonious functioning of Japanese industry, society, and employment.

Managed Rights, Managed Migration  
Midori Okabe 01/26/10
While international migration is yet to be seen as an international public good, the international regime for orderly movement of people may eventually become a norm comparable to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The Englishization of Higher Education in Asia and Migratory Flows of International Students  
Kosaku Yoshino 01/26/10
The Malaysian case of English-medium higher education represents what may be called a postcolonial pattern of English-mediated globalization wherein the old center-periphery arguments of linguistic imperialism are no longer tenable.

Linking Ethics and Self-Interest in Human Mobility  
Michele Wucker 01/26/10
The ethical and self-interested choice in migration policy is to seek liberalized and rationalized migration that combines positive incentives with clear and fair entry criteria that take into account the needs of host and sending countries alike.

The Ethics of Undocumented Migration  
Gracia Liu-Farrer 01/25/10
Using fieldwork data through participant observation and interviews, this paper explains the causes of undocumented migration out of Fujian and explores the ethical frameworks within which Fujian undocumented migrants operate.
